Deuteronomy 23:16-25

16He shall dwellH3427 with thee, even amongH7130 you, in that placeH4725 which he shall chooseH977 in oneH259 of thy gatesH8179, where it pleaseth him bestH2896: thou shalt not oppressH3238 him.1 17There shall be no harlotH6948 of the daughtersH1323 of IsraelH3478, nor a sodomiteH6945 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478.2 18Thou shalt not bringH935 the hireH868 of an harlotH2181, or the priceH4242 of a dogH3611, into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 for any vowH5088: for even bothH8147 these are abominationH8441 to the LORDH3068 thy GodH430. 19Thou shalt not lend upon interestH5391 to thy brotherH251; interestH5392 of moneyH3701, interestH5392 of foodH400, interestH5392 of any thingH1697 that is lent upon interestH5391: 20To a strangerH5237 thou mayest lend upon interestH5391; but to thy brotherH251 thou shalt not lend upon interestH5391: that the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 may blessH1288 thee in all that thou settestH4916 thy handH3027 to in the landH776 where thou goestH935 to possessH3423 it. 21When thou shalt vowH5087 a vowH5088 to the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, thou shalt not deferH309 to payH7999 it: for the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 will surelyH1875 requireH1875 it of thee; and it would be sinH2399 in thee. 22But if thou shalt forbearH2308 to vowH5087, it shall be no sinH2399 in thee. 23That which is utteredH4161 by thy lipsH8193 thou shalt keepH8104 and performH6213; even a freewill offeringH5071, according as thou hast vowedH5087 to the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, which thou hast promisedH1696 with thy mouthH6310. 24When thou comestH935 into thy neighbour’sH7453 vineyardH3754, then thou mayest satisfyH398 thy appetiteH7648 with grapesH6025 at thy own pleasureH5315; but thou shalt not putH5414 any in thy vesselH3627. 25When thou comestH935 into the standing grainH7054 of thy neighbourH7453, then thou mayest pluckH6998 the headsH4425 with thy handH3027; but thou shalt not moveH5130 a sickleH2770 to thy neighbour’sH7453 standing grainH7054.
